Overall, the style of the vessels has evolved, with only a few Shang decorative elements remaining. Pure Zhou forms and motifs dominate. Scale decoration and scoring are common, while the dragons, birds, and taotie are more stylized. Based on inscriptions, such pieces can mostly be dated to around the reign of (King) Wu Wang. Gui were used during ritual ceremonies for storing cooked rice or millet. While this vessel shape first appeared in the Erligang phase, they were not widely produced and examples from this period are rare. This form increased in popularity from the early Western Zhou dynasty, and numerous variations of the original shape also began to appear.
